Akron,s New Telegraph Line.

AKRON, O., April 15.-Despite the fact
that the report has gone out that the
United lines had abandoned their pro
ject of building telegl aph lice from
Cleveland to Akron, that company to-
day put in an appearance In this city,
and at once announced to the public
that their office would be ready here for
business by next Wednesday. The pole
line is now practically completed to
this point, and the wire will all be
strung by Monday evening. As soon as
the Akron connection has been made,
this line will be continued to Canton,
MassillOn and other points south Of here.
The arrival Of the United lines In so
quiet manner will prove a big surprise
to the stout opponents Of that company,
but the people at large will be glad Of
the fact that at last telegraphic compe-
titiOl is open at this point.

MAKING THEM wHACK UP.

What the Commissioners Have Accom-
plished in Detecting Unlisted Property.
Under the new law providing for the
detection of unlisted property for taxa
tiOn, the Commissioners have accom-
plished more than was expected. This
week a wealthy money lender of the
county was cited before the Auditor,
and compelled to give In over $4,000
which he had been cOncealing. The
Auditor says that through the efforts of
Edgar and James Bowman, who have
been appointed to look up unlisted
property in this county, over $500000
has been added to the property listed for
taxation in the past year. This has
brought into the county treasury over
$4,000, or more than enough to pay for
the new insane building at the Intirm-
ary. All the old bOodlers In the county
are being looked up, and the receipts
from this source promises to yield even
better returns next year. The Commits.
siOners are determined that the county
shall not be cheated out of a dollar in
this way, II 1t Is within their power to
prevent 1t. Let the good work 20 on.
